Yuyuan Shanghai

Got off the Yuyuan Metro Station (Line 10) and had to walk along this busy road to Yuyuan.

All the well-known jewelry shops are located right here!

Welcome to Yuyuan 豫园

This 2-Hectare land is sometimes called Yuyuan Bazaar, Yuyuan Tourist Mart, or Yuyuan Market. I just prefer to simply call it YUYUAN.

Yuyuan houses an ancient garden named the Yu Garden, a historical tea house named Huxinting, a prestigious Chinese restaurant named Lu Bo Lang and of course, the rows of souvenir shops, restaurants, cafes, boutiques and an open air market as well.

Moreover, Shanghai's City God Temple is right beside Yuyuan and Shanghai Old Street is just across the road. Yuyuan is really an exciting place to visit.

Hunted for food in one of the food courts. 
I had no idea what soup that was, with that giant bone in it, but it sure smelt fine!

Found a great coffee place. Their Berry Cold Brew is superb!

Lunch just outside Yuyuan cos this little restaurant seemed to be serving homecooked dishes. 
When we walked upstairs, this little cafe is actually a huge restaurant!
Stir fried celery

Chinese wine

Found a Hui Lau Shan here! In Malaysia, I love to visit this cafe for their cold black glutinous rice and taro dessert. No such dessert here but they have the black glutinous rice with mangoes.

Very festive in the evening!
